Vetted Matplotlib Professionals

“Software engineer with experience at Amazon and Agora building end-to-end systems: a knowledge-base AI chatbot (React/TypeScript UI + retrieval/response backend + Docker deployment) and an internal approval governance platform using AWS Step Functions and DynamoDB. Emphasizes fast iteration without sacrificing trust via feature-flag rollouts, citation-required answers, abstention on low-confidence retrieval, regression query sets, and strong observability (request IDs, structured logs, latency/error monitoring).”

“ML/NLP practitioner with a master’s thesis focused on domain-adaptive knowledge distillation for LLMs (LLaMA2/sheared LLaMA), showing improved perplexity and ROUGE-L on biomedical data. Also built real-world data linking and search systems: integrated ClinicalTrials.gov with FAERS using fuzzy matching + embeddings, and delivered an LLM-powered FAQ recommender at Hyperledger using sentence-transformers, FAISS, and fine-tuning to mitigate embedding drift.”

“VP of New Product Development at Axiom Cloud who built and scaled a "Virtual Battery" product that used supermarket frozen inventory as thermal energy storage—personally prototyped core control/safety logic in Python and led the engineering buildout through deployment and operations. Combines real-world industrial controls and edge deployment experience (LonWorks/Modbus, Docker/CI/CD) with an MS in CS focused on robotics, perception, and ML, including ROS 2 and YOLO-based perception.”

“Robotics software engineer from Ati Motors who brought a Linear MPC approach (based on Kuhne et al.) into production, rebuilding parts of the planning stack to eliminate oscillations and safely double AMR speed from 0.8 m/s to 1.6 m/s. Also delivered an end-to-end point-cloud detection pipeline (PointPillars) including synthetic data generation in Isaac Sim and TensorRT deployment for real-time human/trolley detection, with a strong focus on production reliability via iterative hardening and nightly SIL.”

“ML/LLM engineer at Adobe who deployed a transformer-based personalization and campaign-targeting recommender system end-to-end, including PySpark/Airflow pipelines processing 12M+ events/day and containerized inference on AWS SageMaker (Docker/Kubernetes). Also has hands-on LLM workflow experience (RAG, semantic search, prompt optimization, hallucination mitigation) with a metrics-driven approach to reliability, drift monitoring, and reproducible retraining via MLflow.”

“Built a production internal knowledge assistant using a RAG pipeline over large spreadsheets, PDFs, and support documents, using transformer embeddings stored in FAISS. Focused on real-world production challenges—format normalization, retrieval quality, hallucination reduction (context-only + citations), and latency—using hybrid retrieval, quantization, and containerized deployment, and communicated the workflow to non-technical stakeholders using simple analogies.”

“Backend engineer who built gnocal, a ~150-line stateless Go service that turns on-chain event data into standards-compliant .ics calendar feeds consumable by Apple/Google Calendar, deployed on Fly.io. Also refactored MCTS into Monte Carlo Graph Search (Python-to-Rust) using deterministic tests and state canonicalization to handle transpositions, and implemented decentralized role-based ACLs in Gno for a smart-contract web hosting network (gno.land / All in Bits).”

“Robotics software candidate with hands-on ROS2 experience building an autonomous UR7e cake-decorating robot, owning trajectory planning from perception-driven design selection through IK-based waypoint execution. Also optimized a depth-camera object-detection system for assistive glasses (doubling FPS from ~5 to ~10) and is currently exploring distributed Raspberry Pi robot networking to emulate satellite-style handoffs.”

“Backend/data engineer with production experience at Walmart and HealthSnap building Python services and data pipelines on AWS (EKS, Lambda, Glue, Airflow). Strong reliability and operations focus—implemented idempotency + circuit breakers for peak-traffic consistency issues, GitOps CI/CD, and observability. Demonstrated measurable performance wins (Postgres p95 45s to <5s, ~60% CPU reduction) and modernized SAS batch workflows to Python with parallel-run parity validation and feature-flagged rollout.”
